“Maybe we should vote for COMMON SENSE as a REQUIRED CHARACTERISTIC to be President of The United States of America.”

Agreed. Instead, the people of the U.S. elected as President the 12th Imam!

Finally, OUTRAGE! Thank you.

No THEY have to get the hell off.
The only SANE action is to profile Islamic s and NOT LET PEOPLE FROM CERTAIN MUSLIM COUNTRIES ON PLANES TO THE USA. Anything else is complete stupidity.
F*k political correctness

[sonic109]

I KNOW why ..he is one that’s why .

[onyx]

I concur.

[sonic109]

Only common sense. The Obama crew is dangerous and will cost people their lives , in security matters and in health matters.

Lay off Janet Napolitano.

She has more important things on her agenda than this silly airline security nonsense. What’s the big deal about a couple hundred passegers dying compared to getting amnesty for 20 million illegal aliens and 40 million of their follow-on relatives?

Some 200 votes lost versus 10 million votes gained - I know where my priorities would be.

So leave Janet alone. And get your crotches ready for the TSA Tickle.

“F*k political correctness”

I agree, but it is clear the child dictator doesn’t get it. I travel a great deal. Any domestic flight I board, will have ME CHECKING OUT THE PASSENGERS.

(Post Obama Cairo Speech)

"“Barack Obama is not just trying to reach out to Muslims for the sake of it,” says Mr. Gerges, a professor of Middle Eastern studies at Sarah Lawrence College and an authority on modern jihad. “He’s trying to hammer a deadly nail in Osama bin Laden’s message.” What President Obama understood more than his predecessors, Mr. Gerges says, is that it is not a war that can be won militarily, but only ideologically. Jarret Brachman, a former West Point terrorism expert and author of a recent book, “Global Jihadism,” said the speech “was the most important strategic step we’ve taken in this war.” “That’s why Al Qaeda is so nervous,” he said. If the medium were the message, the contrasts could not have been more stark. The American president was polished and poised, his speech broadcast from the elegant surroundings of an ancient Arab university, and watched worldwide. Mr. bin Laden’s was on an audiotape, crackling and hard to hear, broadcast on Al Jazeera. “Osama bin Laden and Ayman Zawahiri have been reduced to a static voice on the radio, a static voice on TV and a static image and message,” Mr. Gerges says. “The message no longer resonates with Muslims the way it did in the late 90s and after 2001.” Has the message from Al Qaeda just become fossilized, a missive from a coelacanth that no longer dares venture out of its deep sea cave, where it slakes its predatory appetites in the dark? “We have to put this in a little bit of perspective,” says Shibley Telhami, a University of Maryland professor who runs an annual poll of Arab public opinion. “Bin Laden still has some support, his intense admirers, but the real difference is that the rest of the Muslim world were embracing him out of anger toward America, and now they’re not.”The anger toward America remains, but most people have rejected Al Qaeda as well, Mr. Telhami says."
